In 679, the warlock Ming Chongyu came out of wu Zetian's palace and went home, but in his heart he planned how to smear the crown prince Li Xian. Just after entering the courtyard, I saw someone jumping off the courtyard wall and shouting at him: "Mr. Ming Chongyu." Ming Chongyu subconsciously responded, but saw a sharp sword stabbed straight into his throat.
Ming Chongyu's death caused great trouble for the crown prince Li Xian, and soon his status as crown prince was deposed, and after several years of seclusion, he was exiled to Bazhou, where he committed suicide a year later.
Who is Ming Chongyu? It starts with his own skills.
Ming Chongyu's father was a county order, and at that time, there was a county official who would summon ghost magic, and Ming Chongyu learned it.
In 666, Ming Chongyu was in Huang'andang County. There was a daughter of Thorn Shi who was seriously ill, and Ming Chongyu cured her with a folk remedy.
Afterwards, Ming Chongyu's name was passed out, and even Emperor Gaozong of Tang heard about it.
Li Zhi summoned Ming Chongyu to the palace, and after some exchanges, Long Yan was very happy, but Li Zhi still wanted to test him and wanted to witness it with his own eyes.
So, Li Zhi sent someone to the basement to play music and said to Ming Chongyu, "What? Can you make music disappear? ”
Ming Chong smiled confidently, only to see that he drew two charms out of peach wood and hung them in the corner of the room, and the sound of music suddenly disappeared.
This summer, Li Zhi felt hot, so he let Ming Chongyu turn out snow. Ming Chongyu went out for a moment, and when he came back, he carried a basin of snow and said calmly, "Your Majesty, this is something that the minister specially retrieved for you from the Yin Mountain." "Li Zhi was overjoyed.
The following spring, Li Zhi wanted to eat melon, so he asked Ming Chongyu to get it for himself. Ming Chongyu asked Li Zhi for a hundred dollars, and in a moment he returned with a melon. Ming Chongyu said respectfully, "Your Majesty, this was taken from the orchard of an old man in The County of the Miao Clan." ”
Li Zhi immediately sent someone to invite the old man to inquire, and the old man replied: "The little old man's orchard just lost a melon, but he got a hundred dollars from the soil." ”
This time Li Zhi was really convinced.
In 677, Li Zhi conferred on Ming Chongyu the Grand Master of zhengyi, and often summoned him to the palace to discuss political affairs. Whenever he borrowed the words of the ghost god to express it, he would be recognized by Li Zhi and Wu Zetian.
One day, Wu Zetian asked Ming Chongyu to meet his three sons, and Ming Chongyu said: "Crown Prince Li Xian's face is not good, and he is not suitable for inheriting the unification; King Li Xian of England was dignified in appearance and had the style of Emperor Taizong; Li Dan, the King of Xiang, was graceful and elegant, had an extraordinary temperament, and had the spirit of an emperor. ”
Wu Zetian believed that this was true, and his attitude toward Li Xian changed, and he sent him the Shaoyang Zhengfan and the Biography of Filial Piety, reprimanding him for not being suitable to be a son and a prince.
At this time, there were rumors in the court that Li Xian was not Wu Zetian's own child, saying that her birth mother was Wu Zetian's sister Lady Korea. Li Xian also heard the rumors, and combined with his mother's attitude towards him and reprimand, he believed it to be true, which made Wu Zetian even more annoyed. Coupled with the fact that Ming Chongyu dispensed some medicine to Li Xian from time to time, Wu Zetian looked down on Li Xian even more.
Why can't Ming Chongyu get along with Li Xian? There is a reason for this. Once, Ming Chongyu performed a trick in front of Li Zhi and Wu Zetian, and was exposed by Li Xian on the spot. Although Li Zhi and Wu Zetian did not blame him at that time, they made Ming Chongyu break out in a cold sweat, because to the greater extent, this was the crime of deceiving the king, and he wanted to lose his head.
Li Xian is very disdainful of Li Xian, who is a trickster, and thinks that he is a liar who sensationalizes and fools people.
And Ming Chongyu also hated Li Xian to death, and every time he played tricks, he had to avoid Li Xian, for fear that a crime of deception would fall on his head. And he was also worried about one thing, that is, once Li Xian took the throne, he would definitely not have good fruit to eat.
Therefore, as long as he saw the opportunity, Ming Chongyu would say bad things about Li Xian in front of Li Zhi and Wu Zetian, and as long as Li Xian was not a prince, he would be safe.
One evening, Ming Chongyu came out of Wu Zetian's palace and went home, reviewing the gains and losses of his words and deeds in front of Wu Zetian as he walked, and thinking about how to continue to smear Li Xian.
When he returned to his courtyard, he suddenly felt that his brain was in a trance, as if he had a dream, and there was a graceful woman who stared at her for a long time, but the woman's face was not real, she said: "Jun listen to me a song." On the day of the gorge, there are many winds and waves in autumn. Gangneung one night rain, intestines broken Mulan song. ”
I don't know how long later, when Ming Chongyu returned to God, he saw a figure jumping from the courtyard wall and shouted: "Mr. Ming Chongyu." ”
Ming Chongyu subconsciously responded, "I am here." Only to see a sword light pierce his throat.
After Ming Chongyu was killed, Li Zhi and Wu Zetian were shocked and immediately sent someone to investigate the matter, but the results of the investigation pointed directly to the crown prince Li Xian.
Wu Zetian sent people to Li Xian's house to collect evidence, and learned from his favored male favorite, Zhao Daosheng, that Ming Chongyu was killed by him. At the same time, hundreds of collars were found in Li Xian's residence, and Wu Zetian was furious and went to Li Zhi to demand the removal of the crown prince.
However, Li Zhi was a little hesitant, he felt that Li Xian was still quite good at handling political affairs. Wu Zetian argued, "Why did he kill Ming Chongyu?" Because Ming Chongyu can cure your illness and make you live a long life, but now that there is no Ming Chongyu, can't he succeed to the throne faster? Moreover, he had armor hidden in his house, which showed that he couldn't wait and wanted to rebel! ”
Li Zhi listened in a cold sweat and summoned Prince Li Xian to be deposed and imprisoned.
It can be said that Ming Chongyu did indeed pull Li Xian down from the position of crown prince. Embarrassingly, it was because of his death.
Ming Chongyu's death stemmed from his dissatisfaction, and his unconsciousness, blindly involved in the vortex of imperial power.
Wu Zetian did not want the capable Li Xian to take the throne and did not want to give up the power in his hands. The crown prince Li Xian wanted to keep his position and take the throne smoothly in the future. Both are ambitious people, and conflict is inevitable.
Ming Chongyu's death is inevitable for those in power, just to see the timing of his death and the role he played.
So, was Ming Chongyu really killed by Li Xian? The history is indeed recorded in this way, but from the perspective of those who have benefited from the latter, it is Wu Zetian.
After several years of seclusion, Li Xian was exiled to Bazhou. The following year, Li Zhi died, and Wu Zetian's third son Li Xian succeeded to the throne, but after only being emperor for more than a month, he was deposed by Wu Zetian. Soon, Li Xian committed suicide in Bazhou, and Wu Zetian's fourth son Li Dan succeeded to the throne, and Wu Zetian took over the throne.
